Heritage Room

Belfast Harbour has opened a new permanent exhibition in its Harbour Office entitled ‘A Port that Built A City’ to celebrate 400 years of Belfast’s maritime history.

The new heritage space details Belfast’s emergence as a major port and the city’s subsequent growth and development as an industrial hub.

The centre piece of the new heritage space is a 3.6m high stained glass window which depicts major events from the Harbour’s history

As well as interactive displays examining the Harbour Office and its unique art collection, the space also includes a stunning new stained glass window by local artist, Ann Smith, the ‘Titanic table’ and artefacts from the Harbour’s past.
